Hi Mick

I would agree with decaying Fly agaric for number 1.

The other 2 are Boletes. It would depend on what substrate they were growing on and what trees/shrubs were in the vicinity for a probable id.

Nice finds.

The 2 photos above are of the same kind of fungi.

The speckling on the top of the fungi above was the soil it has pushed through having stuck to the surface.

Hi Hazel.

1 & 2. Chicken Of The Woods
3 & 4. Russula sp
5. Would need to see the gills and stem to be sure Hazel.
6. Polypore (Bracket fungi). I'll check an id for you Hazel.
7. Agreed on King Alfred's Cakes.

Great set of fungi Hazel.

Hi Mick.

The bottom one of your photos does have characteristics of Larch Bolete but i can't give it as a definite id, unless there was Larch in the area?

Hi Mick

I would say the last four photos (definitely the last two) are of Piptoporus betulinus (Birch Polypore). The first is definitely a Russula type and it looks like a beech leaf is close by so this would narrow down the possibilities. Not sire on the other two as yet.
